Manchester Firing Line Range

recently stopped in just to test a couple different kinds of ammo. staff was knowledgeable and respectful. wait time was a little long but where isn't it? when i made it to my stall no one was hovering over my shoulder telling me what to do or how to do it like countless other range safety staff would. ill be coming back soon to have another pleasant time. i would also recommend to any first time firearm owner, no one at this store/range will treat you different. in addition the business also offers comprehensive firearm safety classes which is always worth checking out.

Just finished the 'Protection in the Home' class with Tom Brown and it was great. He is a great instructor, adding humor with real life experiences. His techniques for teaching classes is a hands-on style with interactive lectures as well. Great class and looking forward to the next one. Great job Tom!

I just completed the TACTICAL RIFLE CLASS with Tom Brown. This was my second class with him and I was not disappointed. It was 4 hours of all range time and the best way to describe it is FUN! Tom does a great job of keeping everyone safe while learning very important skills. There were the basics of proper safety control and optic off set, as well as moving target acquisition in low light conditions and, my personnel favorite, transitioning from rifle to sidearm while moving towards a target. I would recommend this class to everyone that wants to learn more about the capabilities of their rifle or just have FUN! Steve Goldfield Bolton Vermont

This was my second course with Tom. I completed the Personal Protection in the home course earlier this year and gave that course 5 stars. I am giving Personal Protection Outside the Home 5 stars as well. While the content and delivery of the course material were outstanding, the drills and range time were exceptional. Being instructed how to retake initiative in a frightening situation, practicing drills that improve every aspect of my defensive skills, not just shooting was simply a great experience. Tom is about safety and results and that's what I get. It's worth every penny and I am looking forward to the upcoming clinics to improve my skills even more. Thanks Tom!

I just completed the residential rifle clinic with Tom Brown @ MFL. Safety was the underlying message of the day with trigger discipline and safety engagement reminders throughout the class. Tom and Kevin did a great job of keeping this fast-paced class interesting. We engaged in various scenarios including hostage situations and sniper role playing. We were also given an opportunity to try out other rifles. Tom is a master at his craft. I found him to be evenly balanced between professional and engaging. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend taking this or any of his other classes. I also recommend bringing along a handgun and holster, as is suggested.
